    Abstract: An instrument manipulator for a robotic surgery system can include a housing configured to support a surgical instrument. The instrument manipulator can include an actuator configured to move the housing forward and backward. The instrument manipulator can include a release connected to the housing and configured to engage with the actuator in a first configuration to allow the housing and the at least one surgical instrument to move forward responsive to activation of the actuator. The release can be configured to disengage from the actuator in a second configuration to allow a user to manually retract the housing and the at least one surgical instrument. The instrument manipulator can include a user interface positioned at least partially on an exterior surface of the housing and configured to permit the user to transition the release from the first configuration to the second configuration.
